MUTEK Connect is a unique opportunity to develop, experiment with, and evaluate a new model of digital interconnectivity based on the creative connections existing between Tokyo & Mexico City, the global MUTEK branches and our international collaborators at Insomnia Festival and Ekko Festival in Norway, Club to Club Festival in Torino, Italy, as well as the B39 artistic center and its associated festival, PRECTXE, in South Korea. Thanks to these fruitful partnerships the Connect series adds an artistic edge that without doubt equals the creative finesse of the Mexican-Japanese core program.

The ongoing effort of the Connect series to bring together artistic communities from around the world rooted in a commitment to diverse and inclusive programming is made possible only through the generous support of the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec, the Canada Council for the Arts, Music Norway, the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Norwegian Embassy in Tokyo, the European SHAPE platform, the We are Europe Association, the Japan Foundation, the British Council, Amplify D.A.I, ICEC (Generalitat de Catalunya), ICUB (Ayuntamiento Barcelona), and Estrella Damm.
The development of MUTEK’s virtual festival platform was realized by Folklore, AKUFEN Studio, and Time Code Lab.
Virtual Gallery
A key convergence point of the two festival editions is the virtual gallery space. The joint exhibition invites local and international artists, long-time MUTEK collaborators, as well as new kids on the block for a showcase of cutting-edge digital artworks critically re-imagining our digital futures in a post-pandemic world. Be prepared for an exploration of a number of pieces utilizing Virtual Reality, Artificial Intelligence, Interactivity, and Sonification as the immersive mediums of choice.
